Welcome Home to Yourself

What if light wasn’t just a metaphor —
but a feeling you could wake up with?

You’ve spent years being who you needed to be—
holding it all together, showing up for everyone else,
trying to meet expectations that were never your own.

But somewhere along the way…
you lost touch with her.

The woman inside. The one who used to dream.
The one who felt things deeply.
The one who still whispers, “There’s more.”

I’m Teresa.
And this work isn’t about fixing you.
It’s about walking you back to your Light.

The one you were born with.
The one that never left—just got buried
under shoulds, shame, and survival mode.

Here, we do things differently.
We get curious instead of critical.
We honor your wisdom instead of chasing someone else’s path.
We stop numbing and start listening.

Whether it’s alcohol, food, perfection, or performance
that’s kept you disconnected—
this is where we turn inward instead of away.

Because your life isn’t meant to be managed.
It’s meant to be lived.
Fully. Boldly. Freely.

And it starts by loving yourself all the way back to Light.

From My Heart to Yours

If you’re here because you’re tired of hiding, performing, or numbing…
I see you. I’ve been there.
And I want you to know—there’s light ahead.

Hi, I’m Teresa. I don’t believe in labels

Hi, I’m Teresa. I don’t believe in labels

I believe in light.

I believe in light.

Over twenty years ago, I made a choice that would begin returning me to the light.

There was a time in my life when I felt quietly disconnected from myself.

Not broken. Not dramatic. Just dimmed.

I was moving through my days, doing what I thought I was supposed to do — but I wasn’t fully alive.

For me, alcohol was part of that dimming.

Not the root. Just a symptom.

The real shift didn’t come from “quitting.”

It came from curiosity.

What if there’s more?

What if I’m meant to feel clearer than this?

More present. More awake. More me.

One small choice at a time, I stopped numbing and started noticing.

I began choosing light — again and again — and something unexpected happened.

I didn’t just change my habits.

I reclaimed myself.

For over twenty years now, I’ve been walking this path — not just away from what dimmed me, but toward a fuller expression of who I am.

Today, I support women in doing the same.

Not through labels. Not through shame. Not through rigid rules.

But through curiosity, sovereignty, and self-trust.

Because you are not a problem to be fixed.

You are a woman remembering her light.

And that changes everything.
